Bear in mind that many people consider abortion to be murder even when the people it "kills" only exist in the theoretical future.

It's not a rational way of thinking, but it is common.

I believe the usual argument is that the person already is a person, not that they could become one.

The people who consider abortion to be murder consider it to be an actual, non-potential baby. Thus, killing that baby is murder.

Your argument is merely a straw man that left wing types smugly create and then dismiss to portray those they disagree with as stupid.
